The Censored Census of 1862

ID: 142373

A document of those who were living in this street in 1862, recorded on coarse paper. Several passages are inked through and there is a curling tentacle-print at the bottom of the page. Somehow this escaped being burnt decades ago.

This item dates to the era of our game Mask of the Rose, set soon after London's fall.

The Censored Census of 1862 is a Weapon item.

Perusal of Forgotten Pages

The Census of 1862 catalogued households in London just after the fall – and records those missing, as well as those present. The pages are unevenly sized, the ink variously coloured, and […] runs sideways on some pages. Portions […] scratched out.
